Broccoli Cheese Soup

I got this recipe from The Girl Who Ate Everything. I think she credits someone else with it as well. Here's my version. It is hands down the best soup I have ever made. Perhaps even the best soup I have ever eaten. Really. It's that good.


Ingredients:
1-3/4 c vegetable broth
1/3 c all-purpose flour
4 T butter
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp salt
2 c milk
1-1/2 c shredded cheddar cheese, preferably sharp or extra sharp
1/2 c shredded Swiss cheese
1 bunch of broccoli, chopped


Directions:
In the microwave, heat milk and veggie broth (I think I heated mine about 2 min each.) Also cook the broccoli in a glass bowl covered with saran wrap for 3-4 min.
Meanwhile, melt butter in a pot and then add flour, salt and pepper. Cook together, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes, and then whisk in warmed milk. Stir and heat together on medium heat until soup starts to thicken, about 5-8 minutes. Add warmed broth and continue to stir until well blended.
Add cheeses and stir until completely melted. Stir in cooked broccoli.
Makes about 6 cups.
